10 Horror Movies Starring Game Of Thrones Actors You Need To See
6. The Bad Batch
This wild post-apocalyptic tale is full of exciting world-building and a dangerous vibe that keeps it entertaining throughout, despite the narrative being stretched as thin as it can go. One of the leading figures in this movie is Miami Man, played by Jason Mamoa, who does a great job of playing an intimidating antagonist turned unexpected ally.
The Bad Batch depicts a ruined world, in which people deemed undesirable by society are banished to the desert wastelands and forced to fend for themselves. Our protagonist Arlen is one such unfortunate, who after being ejected survives an assault from a collection of cannibals. After a few years of living in a settlement called Comfort, she encounters a young child in the wastelands and brings her back, only to discover that she is the daughter of the cannibal community's leader - Miami Man.
The film is full of that fun post-apocalyptic energy made famous by the Mad Max series but takes it into a far more horror-centric setting, filled with frightening cannibalism and conspiracy. The style is incredibly pulpy which gives it this fun B-movie quality, and allows for plenty of self-indulgence that comes across as enjoyable rather than annoying.
